Crafted SYN Packets...

Looking at some suspicious behaviour in our logs...

If someone sends a packet with the SYN bit set to a host, typically what is
the client's source port? Or is that crafted too?

And additionally, when a client does sent a packet of this type, am I right
in assuming its generally TCP only? Can you have a UDP SYN packet? I assume
because its connectionless, no???
